The difference between my box and yours is that my folders all lay flat and I don&#39;t have dividers! It was an inexpensive solution ;-)<br />I really like your idea about having tags! What I do to keep the names straight, is as soon as I open the package I write the name right on the folder (I use a pink Sharpie) so I won&#39;t forget!

I too have a VERY large collection. We are wonderfully &amp; creatively addicted LOL. I keep a notebook w/ a running alpha list of all my folders. They are stored in those blue cloth zippered binders from JoAnns. Mind are bursting at the seams. I always have to flip through them to find what I&#39;m looking for. My most used ones are on my Clip It stand. So I love your system that corresponds to the numbers. I may seriously think about re-organizing. And I must buy some of the envelopes for my flat dies. that is also a fabulous idea. Thank you so much for the productive tips. Have a good weekend and a Happy Valentines Day next week.

I found a plastic container - similar but smaller than yours - on clearance at Joann&#39;s and that has worked well. Except I have now outgrown that. Thanks for sharing this great organizing solution! And I love the tag idea. I was just thinking last week - how am I going to know what embossing folders I have without pulling out each one?
